Expo – oh -no!

The first really big test of my bento stand is coming up! I don’t know if I should be worried or excited.

The Technology of Tomorrow expo (this super big deal convention with a bunch of inventors and scientists) starts soon right near my booth, and that means one thing: Train after train of tech savvy people, hungry for bento and technology are headed my way. So I’m about to be busy with a capital "B" and a lower case "usy".I hope I can make enough bento to keep the crowds fed!

“We demand bento! And technology! And a bigger train!”

But it did make me think that maybe it’s time for a first ever installment of

YUMI INVENTS THE FUTURE BY OFFERING AMAZING DEALS!

Listen up scientists! I have some serious ideas about technology – so I will be offering the following coupons during the expo:

1: Do we still need doorbells? No. We need something more exciting. Present a more fun alternative for 10% off of a single bento!

2: If you invent anything that floats, present it at the booth for 50% off of any non-sale item!

3: If you have a cute robot, and I get to play with it for a few minutes, you can have whatever you want. For free. As many times as you want. As long as you always bring the robot. Make sure everyone knows that.

4: I’d wear glasses if they did anything fun. Can you make that happen? 10% off any dessert.

5: Shoelaces are so hilariously old! Make something better, preferably something that makes a neat noise. 30% off family sized bento deal.

6: Free anything you want if you can fix the weird things that have been going on at my apartment.

7: Why doesn’t my bag do more things? Move out of the stone ages, bags! You should have moving parts, and play music, and have GPS or something. If you can help with that – free snack sized bento!

I’m going to add some more deals as I think of them. Also, I’ve got a very busy week coming up, so I may have a guest blogger a little later. Not sure if he’s going to be able to fill in, but I’ll let you know!
